OCNS will pursue accreditation from the National University Commission (NUC) in the immediate future to be able to grant degrees to its graduates upon successful completion of their programs. Students who complete the requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Nursing will be eligible to write the registered nursing exam to qualify as a Professional Registered Nurse. This degree is equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree in the United States. Graduates of this program will be eligible to participate in the mandatory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
